Done with a high quality Panasonic digital camera. If I have to reduce the pixel count, how do I do that?
Well you're using JPG which has already reduced the quality compared to RAW or TIFF. You don't say what the size of the image is, it's pixel-count dimensions, only the file size.
He said it on another thread. It turns out it is not 36 GiB but about 100MiB. Then on another post here he said: D> Here's a typical file: D> 2545345 Dec 31 2005 samsung tv.JPG D> So, you're right. I miscounted. It's more like 100 MiB--maybe a little less. D> There are 18 files.You do the math. So 18 files at 2.5 MB makes 45 MB. *Some* mail servers can accept that size, but even if they do the recipient might reject it. So no guarantee. My camera uses JPG as most, but not very much compressed; gimp compresses the same photo significantly more at the same Q factor. Must be a limit of the camera processor. Or a compromise (speed vs power). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from oS Leap 15.2 x86_64 (Minas Tirith))
